With a population of more than 68 million, Thailand is the second largest economy (behind Indonesia) in the Asean group of countries. Ranked 31st in the world for competitiveness, Thailand’s economy is dominated by manufacturing (accounting for 33 percent of GDP), closely followed by the services sectors (tourism, real estate, healthcare, financial services and trading) and finally agriculture. Thailand’s GDP has grown steadily over the last 15 years, averaging a 4.2 percent increase year-on-year, which has led to it having one of the lowest unemployment rates in the word (currently at 0.7 percent). This very low unemployment rate coupled with more and more companies using Thailand as their Asean base has put a premium on highly skilled and managerial level talent.

The premium on highly skilled professionals means that having a well-connected executive search (headhunting) partner is essential.
